|
Unconditioned Stimulus(US) |
Elicits a response in the absense of learning |
|
Unconditioned Response(UR) |
The response elicited by a stimulus in the absence of learning. |
|
Extinction |
The weakening an eventual disappearance;in classical conditioning, it occurs when the conditioned stimulus is no longer paired with the unconditional stimulus. |
|
Conditioned stimulus(CS) |
.an initially neutral stimulus that comes to elicit a conditioned response after being associated with an unconditioned stimulus. |
|
Conditioned response(CR) |
A response that is elicited by the conditioned stimulus occurs after the CS has been associated with US is usually similar to the UR. |
|
Positive reinforcement |
When a response is followed by the presentation of or increase in intensity of a pleasurable stimulus |
|
Negative reinforcement |
When a response is followed by the removal of or decrease in intensity of an unpleasant stimulus |
|
Reinforcement |
The process by which a stimulus or event strengthens or increases the probability of the response that it follows. |
